Softswiss joins forces with ICE to facilitate tech dialog in iGaming

The Tech Race Summit will bring together engineering leaders from worldwide cloud providers, infrastructure corporations and high load tech companies. These relationships will allow WorldGaming to tap onto these specialists.
Softswiss Tech Race Summit ICE have teamed up with Softswiss to unveil its Tech Race Summit 2026, a dedicated event that’ll promote engineering and technology conversations in iGaming and bring together experts from tech giants to talk about their work on the systems that power today’s digital businesses.

The Tech Race Summit will be held on 10 September 2026 in Warsaw, Poland. It will bring together executives from cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, cybersecurity, observability and AI adoption giants such as AWS, Google, Oracle, Cloudflare, Fastly, Gcore and ScyllaDB.

WorldGaming will be the media partner for Tech Race Summit as part of the agreement, offering the sector a platform to further engage in the debates opened up by the event. Then, the debates will continue at ICE 2027.

The event program will be focused on technical decision-making, real-world engineering expertise and the future of digital infrastructure. Despite a variety of industry events all year round there has been no forum for stakeholders to discuss technology concerns from an engineering perspective, encountered by all high-load industries.

ICE 2027 to host dedicated major tech and engineering talks
“Technology is emerging as one of the defining forces in iGaming, but we’ve seen relatively few dedicated engineering conversations,” said Margaret Dunn, Portfolio Director WorldGaming (previously Clarion). We are happy to sponsor Tech Race Summit 2026, as this is what we will be concentrating on at ICE 2027.

Dunn continued, “We see it as an important responsibility to encourage knowledge sharing across the industry, and we believe the whole sector will benefit from these conversations.”

“This will be an opportunity to share practical experience and better understand where cloud infrastructure, AI and high-load systems are going next,” said Sergey Kastukevich, CTO at Softswiss.

Unsurprisingly, AI has become a major topic of conversation within the iGaming market and the deployment of various large language models is rife. One example is iGaming platform provider Cubeia, which is employing AI to write all its back and frontend code to speed up its time to market with client updates.

Other instances of AI uptake across the sector are AI-powered live casino and slots. As AI continues to grow in popularity, the larger questions of broader adoption and the IT giants that are powering the models will also come to the fore.
